"The biggest lie about his statement is that he absolutely NEGLECTS to state that his healthcare bill RE-defines what is considered a small business. From the bill (which he obviously still has not read): ‘‘…the number of qualified employees employed by such employer during the taxable year does not exceed 25 ‘‘.
He also neglects to mention that the credit is reduced for any employer whose annual average taxable employee salary is $20,000 or more. The credit is not allowed for any employees who make $80,000 or more. I took a look at the latest Census report for business and what I found was truly eye-opening. The average salaries of small business employees for those employers fitting ‘Obama’s bill’ is around $28,000 per year. There will be no credit for the majority of small businesses. That’s right – NO HEALTHCARE CREDIT. The number of employees that fall into this category is over 21 million. That doesn’t include the next bracket up of employers with 20 -99 employees who will not get the credit due to having over 25 employees. That number is almost 21 million. His plan also starts to phase out the credit when an employer hits 10 employees or more. His small business ‘tax credit’ will help essentially no one. Why would employers even bother keeping it when their employees can now get the ‘new and improved Government option’??? Employers and employees LOSE."
Plus apparently they want to reimpose on small businesses the Clinton era tax rates on higher earners ... hitting not just individual earners but small businesses. "
Depending on how we define "small business," these higher tax rates would raise taxes on 45 to 55 percent of small business income.”
This seems to be his new line why more people should support this than did next week. Is this really the best he can do?
What do you think?

PBG, this certainly doesn't seem to be the way to capture it.
Jimmy, that is what he said. I'm wondering if it is true. Did you see the rest?
Patriot, you keep cutting and pasting the same thing and I'm not going to respond thoroughly each time. The costs would not come down. They went up in France which is in dire straights, up in England which is rationing end of life care, and up in Massachusetts which has raised taxes and has to rethink it.
A healthier workforce is a more productive one. And with his plans, the cost for insurance will come down.
I am always amazed how many Americans seem not to be aware about the issues with healthcare relying on FOX and other sources to spread misinformation about the healthcare system of the USA and those abroad.
First of all, Obama wants to make insurance more available to all. And change the system so that it is cheaper, and also so that the insurance companies find it harder to get out of paying for treatment. The system he is proposing looks similar to that which works in Holland and Switzerland where private companies are involved in providing insurance. The second Guardian link has an insurance executive talking about how his company and others like it push up costs, buy out politicians and refuse to pay out when people are ill. Obama wants to change that.
Second, of course universal health-cover sucks. That is why we in Western Europe have it. We think, hmm, our healthcare system sucks. I know, lets keep it. I guess that is the same with Japan and Canada as well.
Third, Obama campaigned on reforming the healthcare system. He said he wanted to make insurance more available and he was elected by the American people to do this.
FACT - the US has higher death rates for kids aged under five than western European countries with universal health coverage.
FACT - the USA spends more on healthcare PER PERSON than any other nation on the planet.
That means that a dead American four year old would have had a better chance of life if they were born in Canada, France, Cuba, Germany, Japan etc, all of which have universal health coverage.
Last of all if you do not like the policies that Obama was elected to bring in, he can always be voted out of office in 2012.

My teacher says that I can use a calculator, and I think that I have to use implicit differentiation for the first part.
6. Consider the curve defined by -8x^2 + 5xy + y^3 = -149
a) Find dy/dx
b) Write the equation for the line tangent to the curve at the point (4,-1)
c) There is a number k so that the point (4.2, k) is on the curve. Using the tangent line found in part b, approximate the value of k
d) Write an equation that can be solved to find the actual value of k so that the point (4.2, k) is on the curve.
e) Solve the equation found in part d for the value of k.
a)
F(x,y) = -8x^2 + 5xy + y^3 +149
The curve is defined by
F(x,y) = 0
Then
dy/dx = -(∂F/∂x)/(∂F/∂y)=
=-(-16x+5y)/(5x+3y^2)
b)
F(4,-1) = -8X16+5X4X(-1)+(-1)^3+149=
=-128-20-1+149=0,
then (4,-1) is a point of the curve.
The slope of the curve at this point is
dy/dx = -(-16X4+5X(-1))/(5X4+3(-1)^2)=
= -(-64-5)/(20+3)=
= 69/23 = 3
The equation of the tangent is
y-(-1) = 3 (x-4)
or
y = 3x - 13
c)
k ≈ 3X4.2 - 13 = 12.6 - 13 = -0.4
d)
F(4.2, k) = 0 is the equation to be solved. Explicitly
-141.12 + 21 k + k^3 + 149 = 0
or
k^3 + 21 k + 7.88 = 0
e)
We could use Cardano's formula, or a numerical calculation. For example, Newton:
k_(n+1) = k_n - f(k)/f´(k)
being
f(k) = k^3 + 21 k + 7.88
f'(k) = 3k + 21
Starting with k_0 = -0.4 (our best guess by now) we obtain
k_1 =-0.37281191806331
k_2 = -0.37277143926978
k_3 = -0.37277143918422
k_4 = -0.37277143918422
The last two values are equal (up to the figures showed) and can be considered the solution...
Cardano:
k = u+v
then
(u+v)^3 + 21(u+v) + 7.88 = 0
or
(u^3+v^3+7.88) + (3uv+21)(u+v)=0
we search for u and v which satisfy
u^3+v^3+7.88=0
3uv+21
The second equation can be written
u^3 v^3 = -343
Then v^3 = -343/u^3
Replacing into the first one
u^3 - 343/u^3 + 7.88 = 0
or
p^2 + 7.88 p - 343 = 0
where p = u^3
As the system for u and v is symmetric, the solutions of the quadratic ecuations will be u^3 and v^3
u^3 = 3.94 + sqrt(3.94^2 + 343) = 14.99471943283026
v^3 = 3.94 - sqrt(3.94^2 + 343) = -22.87471943283027
Then
u_n = 2.83869407958117 * exp(i2πn/3)
v_n = -2.46592264039695 * exp(-i2πn/3)
For n=0
k_0 = 0.37277143918422
is the value we are searching for. The other two are complex
k_1 = 0.18638571959211 + 4.59393283684074i
k_2 = 0.18638571959211 - 4.59393283684074i
I am 5'4" and I weigh around 100 lbs. I don't eat much and when I do it's never anything healthy. >_<
I stay skinny because of a very high metabolism I got from my mom. And when I say skinny, I mean you can see my ribs and my pelvis bone juts out at the sides when I lay down. I'm not malnourished either, I'm perfectly healthy.
I'm also not a very physically active person, so I'm not at all muscular either. I spend my days sitting around watching tv and playing video games. I'm using marching band as my PE credit for school. XP
Now that you know me, what's the best way to get abs? I don't want anything extremely toned, but I would like some defined lines even when I'm not flexing, so people notice my abs whenever my shirt comes up and not my jutting out bones. -_-"
Any tips?
Also, should i do situps or crunches?
And how should I do them?
Nothing can circumvent hard work, you're going to have to get into the gym work out. Don't just work out your stomach muscles though, you'll need to work your whole body. Also something along the lines of cardio-kickboxing can really work wonders.
Home Equity Loans Vs a Home Equity Line of Credit
A home equity line of credit can save a life, whether a project or a short term need for cash, but the term (the amount) of time in which you pay the loan back is probably much shorter than you would, you This is a home loan, however, and the rate of interest is likely to be a variable interest rate (for more information on variable interest rates higher). The most important thing you need before making loans or considered "under these loans, their effectOpportunity to make your monthly payments and possibly jeopardize your home.
For this reason, I would suggest that taking into account the flexibility that is observed with a home equity line of credit is, you will also be held in a home loan. The reason for this is that it develops with a home equity loan, to set the amount of existing mortgage debt in a time much more manageable.
